Watch interviews from the Rogue One red carpet premiere!

We have some great interview clips from Saturday's premiere of Rogue One at the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood! We've combined them into one YouTube playlist so you can watch them all together. Check them out after the jump.

The interviews include director Gareth Edwards, who discusses the film and his love of Star Wars as a kid. However, he does not discuss the problems they faced with reshoots and changes to the film.

In her interview, Felicity Jones (Jyn Erso) seems overwhelmed by the entire Star Wars phenomenon but is thankful for being a part of it. Diego Luna (Cassian Andor) called his experience "perfect" and said it was "special" to be a part of the Star Wars universe. He joked that he had been preparing for the role since he was six years old and both he and his kids enjoyed the X-Wing on display at the premiere.

Donnie Yen (Chirrut Imwe), in his interview, talks with pride of being the first Chinese actor to receive a prominent role in a Star Wars film. Ben Mendelsohn (Director Krennic) calls the film "tough" and "electric," and discusses his personal Star Wars fandom. Alan Tudyk (K2-SO) discusses the diversity in the cast and talks about his droid character.

Rogue One follows Jyn Erso, a woman on the run whose past leads her to the Rebel Alliance, and a rendezvous with destiny.

Here's a YouTube playlist of the interviews.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story opens December 16.
